I wish you a happy Norouz and I wish you a prosperous Zoroastrian 1396 new year.Another year has gone by and we all got a year older and a little wiser, and we take memories of all that we have been through with us to the new year.

The Zoroastrian calendar is believed to have started 3755 years ago. The Zoroastrian new year starts on the first day of spring, when the whole nature comes back to life, when the whole of the animal kingdom starts a new way of life after the cold winter.

The other reason for the new year being the start or spring is that spring is the start of agricultural year and those days the whole of the world was reliant of the farming industry.
